THE SUNDAY AFTERNOON BRITISH THRILLER - SAPPHIRE

Producer

Venue

(NR) Two London detectives (Nigel Patrick and Michael Craig) are assigned to the murder of a young, pregnant music student (Yvonne Buckingham). Initially thought to be white, they discover the girl's racial origins are quite mixed—exposing bigotry and hatred among those under investigation and those who are attempting to solve the crime. Quite controversial when released 53 years ago, SAPPHIRE still exudes a timeless message about race relations. The last film in our Sunday Afternoon British Thriller Series.
